... Power of a test Power of a test depends on the alternative hypothesis. To see the power of the current test let us use normal distribution. Null hypotheis: that true mean is equal 0. Let us set alternative hypothesis: true mean is the observed difference that is equal to -0.41. Again we assume that ...

... Different random samples yield different statistics. We need to be able to describe the sampling distribution of possible statistic values in order to perform statistical inference. We can think of a statistic as a random variable because it takes numerical values that describe the outcomes of the r ...

The formulas based on this classical approach are useful to calculate, but only become accurate with increasing sample size. With existing computing power, computer intensive methods can often be used instead to asse ...

... The test compares the continuous cdf, F(x), of the hypothesized distribution with the empirical cdf, SN(x), of the N sample observations. Based on the maximum difference statistics (Tabulated in A.8): D = max| F(x) - SN(x)| Sample sizes are small, No parameters have been estimated from the data. ...
